Great VPN if you are in China

I used several VPN services in China. Most of them work bad or simply not work! VyprVPN works always wherever I used it (iPhone, Mac, Windows). Connects quickly and with the Chameleon protocol seems not to be blocked in China. I really recommend it to use if you need to use Google Services, Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, etc... in China. For the price you get a good quality service and you can connect up to 5 devices with the same account. Totally recommend it!

Great app, speed and price

Great app, both Mac and iOS, really good speed hitting 40 Mbps on occasion, in Chameleon mode no need to turn VPN off to watch Netflix (which is usually the case with VPNs). Price is very reasonable, support is responsive and overall there's a feeling of a good service with a mission.

Works well in China

VyprVPN works well in China. I have used for about 3 months. I feel that my iPhone VyprVPN app is better than Windows10. I need VPN to read my Gmail and other Google websites. It always works in my iPhone, however my computer with windows10 failed several times.

Good opinion

Good connectivity to the places that I have tried.
Some of the media platforms that I use don't work 100% (whatsapp).
Customer service is very good and fast. I asked them about this problem I described before and very soon after I received response with things that could be done to fix the problem.
Thank you.

Stable and reliable

Works amazing except I’ve noticed lately that connects but I have to disconnect and reconnect manually because it times out. All servers except the ones in US are red lined. I have to connect to Brazil or somewhere kinda weird since I’m in the United States.

Great to watch my favorite programs abroad again!

I was surprised to find out how many of my favorite Dutch channels that were geographically blocked, were now available again while travelling abroad! Best investment in VPN software until now! And it's super easy to use.

Use a different VPN but especially for File Sharing

Vypr VPN is not a good VPN for a variety of reasons and you should use a different service.
Vypr VPN is an especially bad VPN if you plan to use any kind of filesharing service. Vypr receive complaints from copyright holders, forward them on to you and suspend your service if they deem you to have participated in file sharing. I was ok for 6 months with Vypr then they alleged I had shared an episode of the latest Season of Rick and Morty. They suspended my account and would not unlock it unless I confirmed that I would cease breaking copyright law. I would not acknowledge breaking copyright law in the first place so could not unlock my service and it remained suspended. Vypr refused to give me a refund and effectively stole 6 months of my annual VPN subscription or $78 USD. They did not even respond to me when I wrote to them and asked for a refund.
If that doesn't put you off ponder this. How can Vyper receive a frivolous legal threat from a Hollywood lawyer and forward it on to a customer who is using their service if they are not maintaining some kind of log of customer activity?
I moved on to a cheaper VPN that supports Utorrent and have been happy with that service.

Fraudulent company

Vypr VPN are a fraudulent company that does deals with other companies involving monitoring of downloads.
What do I mean by this?
Let me give you an analogy.
Company A leaves a bunch of bananas hanging over the footpath. You are walking down the street and decide to try a banana. Company A is watching you and reports you to Vypr VPN who punish you for picking fruit that is on public property and hence does not belong to company A.
Vypr VPN should be shut down and sued for non disclosure of company's operating procedures.
Vypr VPN are operating as pseudo internet police that have no jurisdiction to play their trade.

One of the best VPN services I tried, simple to use, comes with an app, plenty of servers to pick from!

I had VyprVPN as part of my Giganews account. It's been great! I have a 100 Mbps download speed, and 10 Mbps upload, with fiber to the basement. I normally get about 90 Mbps download and 13 Mbps upload. With the VPN I get about 75 Mbps download and 10 Mbps upload.

Not a good VPN if you care about privacy or torrenting

The good:
-Was able to watch Netflix in US, Australia, and New Zealand. The other countries I tried were blocked (including the UK) as Netflix detected them as a VPN
The bad:
(Phew, where to start?)
-THEY ARE TRACKING YOU: VyprVPN tracks what you are doing while you're connected to their service despite the claim on their privacy statement "What Golden Frog Does Not Collect From VyprVPN Sessions: Does not log a user's traffic or the content of any communications." This is obviously false because:
-COPYRIGHT NOTICES: If they detect you are torrenting, you will be sent a DMCA copyright infringement notice by email and your service will be blocked until you sign an affirmation that you will not do it again. Refusal to sign means your service will forever be blocked.
-BAD CUSTOMER SUPPORT: After I was sent an email that I had downloaded copyrighted material and that my service was blocked, I contacted support via live chat telling them I wanted to cancel my service. I asked for a PARTIAL refund since there was still 20 days left of the month that I would not be using. I did not ask for a full refund of the month, just the unused portion of the 20 days left! Not an unreasonable request, I think. The support person told me they had a strict no-refund policy. After arguing back and forth about why I didn't want to sign their affirmation and that they were the ones blocking my use of their product, the customer service agent told me he was going to end the chat! I find their attitude was quite inflexible and not customer-friendly.
-NO REFUNDS, EVER: My request for even a partial refund was denied even though they blocked my service.

Reliable, good price

I've been very happy with Vypr VPN, have had it a couple of weeks and haven't had any issues. I haven't noticed any difference in my computer functioning, I screen videos constantly and there's been no change in the speed whatsoever.

Not so great

The price is ok, but the service is not great - frequent disconnect and slow speeds.
Customer support is not of any help.. They just repeat what they said and ask you for screen shots but nothing gets resolved.
Their software upgrades are not great, upgrade process fails and leaves in a non working state. have to completely uninstall and reinstall. Not worth it.

WARNING: Works in concert with DMCA watchdogs

Connection speed seems better than many, but this is where the good news ends. Their service does NOT work with P2P/torrenting unless you enjoy having your account suspended and being issued with what they call a "DMCA Strike" (I think this might be where they get their name) simply by having your IP linked to a currently monitored torrent - which obviously means they do in fact keep logs (they also happen to have the email address "DMCA@vyprvpn.com" which pretty much says it all). As if that isn't bad enough, VyprVPN also DOES NOT work with streaming services such as Netflix and Amazon Prime/Video, further rendering it quite useless for anything where security is of paramount concern.

Joel

Worthless VPN

Vypr claim to support P2P and not to keep user logs. Then they suspended my account and sent me a DMCA notice from a copyright holder illustrating that they clearly do maintain a log and that they do not support P2P. I wrote them an email saying I felt I had been ripped off which they didn't even care to respond to. I am much happier with PIA and it is 2.5 times cheaper.

Inconsistent service

When you connect to their service, it is fast. That is about the only positive point I can make about VyperVPN. Two months into my yearly subscription my mac client wouldn't connect to their service under any circumstances. So I contacted support and the only advice they had was a long list of procedures I should follow to set up a manual service, which implied amongst other daunting tasks typing VyperVPN's server addresses in the macOS configuration in order to connect. In short - bypass their own app and connect via the OS. That was their fix.
Apart from that, the service is unreliable, albeit fast, experiencing regular disconnects whilst browsing or streaming content.
They keep logs, and I recommend you read their TOS very carefully because as other users have stated they will cancel your subscription if they suspect you are torrenting or otherwise engaging in "illegal" activities.

A terrible experience

Their yearly subscription renewal is automatic without prior notice. When that happened, instead of sending me a full refund, the customer service charged me a monthly service fee for a whole month, just because I didn't know the service was renewed and logged the software 2 to 3 times. Also, the customer service manager lady had a very harsh tone, which revealed the self righteousness that these people have. I am so tired of this type of "my rules are flawless and everyone should follow and listen to me" attitude. I would admit that this company did a decent job on what they are doing, it's just that these people simply don't have the concept of customer satisfaction. From the tone in their responses, I bet they will also use both personal and usage information they have collected from you against you. They give you the feeling of being bullied by their fee charging traps. I also don't think they care about your privacy at all. I would not recommend this service to anyone.

Was good, but won´t buy it again

Since last update permanent TAP-Problems, even Disconnecting takes >40sec. Why???
Also the software is not able to handle the win10 resume function. Only complete restart will activate internet connection again. Android client is unstable. Sorry guys, for that amount of money, it is too boring!

Thieves and liars with a good rep because of bogus promotional reviews

DO NOT GET THIS SERVICE. I have/had them until this morning and I noticed I was unprotected. I logged into my e-mail and noticed they sent me a .eml file I COULD not read. I contacted them and they claimed it was a DMCA takedown notice. I told them I did not do it and further that I was not stating that simply because I had some fear of whomever sent them the notice. In fact I told them I don't care about a DMCA notice. Never had one ever in my life, but I know one can receive many before anything really happens per FCC rules. File sharing is NOT why I have their service. The problem is that they cut service IMMEDIATELY upon receipt of a notice they claim they took no steps to verify. Bear in mind this is the very FIRST notice in two months of service. They indicated I could get service back by promising not to violate copyrights. WHAT!??? I told them I do not want a service where someone can invite me to their site, note my ip address, and then send a bogus takedown notice to Goldenfrog/Vypr and when I come back to that site my real IP is exposed. They should have contacted me first before any disconnection rather than exposing me like that. Then they pretend not to understand that scenario and just repeat what VPN service is. Finally they tell you they are keeping your money for the whole year, though they only provided less than two months service in my case. CALL YOUR CREDIT CARD COMPANY AND GET ***ALL*** OF YOUR SUBSCRIPTION MONEY BACK. Your credit card company will side with you against these vultures.

Shawn Marrster

Also DMCA

I also got a DMCA from VYPR. You either have to accept or they cut service. I don't understand how they believe DMCA is valid for a user in a country without DMCA laws.
They claimed my IP uploaded a torrent with some move I have never seen.
A secure VPN gives out my name, address and helps a movie company to link an IP address to a specific customer.
You are less secure with them and it's sad since it's a fast VPN with great geo unlocking features that I have to have (live in a country with a government firewall)

Bubbles

Aug 11, 2017

DMCA is not the problem

The DMCA is not the issue in and of itself. You can get many of them before your own ISP shuts you down. The problem is that if VYPR shuts you down without pre-notice it leaves you exposed. And if they don't have any means to verify a takedown notice anyone can send such notice to them with your/their IP address and almost immediately find out your real IP. Of course the further problem in all this is when they start lying to cover that policy you realize you are trusting someone not to keep logs who is lying to you. If they don't keep logs, how can they forward you a takedown notice in the first place from activity that took place prior?

Simple to purchase and use on multi devices

It all works super-well. Simple, user-friendly, and with a perfect set of tools.
Best is, its end to end ownership and their total control - and mission.
Works seamlessly on my desktop & laptop (Macs) and iPhone. All intuitive and a snap to find the quickest or most useful server and protocol. Even the pricing is the best for what you get, and while some are upset by non-bitcoin payment options, really, you're trusting them with 100% of your data chain, so for most people the use of a CC or Paypal is like trusting your wireless company. And these guys are about privacy, with their history and base in Switzerland convincing me to go with them. So happy. A guide time to get protective. It even truly maxes or even exceeds my usual hi-speed connection, no degradation at all, at least from my location. YMMV. No problems with billing, support is great, greenfrog invented usenet. And all the warnings about billing, ethics, well... sorry for those where it didn't work out but this was a great pick - pricing has gotten better (competition!) while they offer great home-made products and servers with lots of bang for the buck.

Sneaky business practices

I would award them zero stars if it were possible. Their VPN service is OK, but their business practices are rotten!
My premium account, for which I paid $120 last year, was up for
automatic renewal. Meanwhile, they had reduced the price for the
premium package to $80, and yesterday were offering a %25 discount
making it $60.
I was never informed of the price reduction, and expected it to be
applied to me automatically. NOT so! They charged my credit card
$120 for exactly the same service available to others for $60. When I
contacted them, they refused to refund my credit card, instead they
wanted to keep my $120 and let me carry a credit balance at Golden
Frog.
Furthermore, they reminded me they have what they call a "No Refund
Policy". Once they have your money, they want to keep it.
I cancelled my account and finally got them to agree to refund the
credit card charge, but I will never do business with them again.

Do not use them, they are not anonymous

These guys are not anonymous at all. After an hour of usage they locked my account and started to ask following questions: where am I from? What is my credit card last 4 digits? At what time did I register with them? And if you don't agree to answer, they simply block your access to VPN, they don't care what you think about that. For sure, this VPN exists just to spy for you, it is not anonymous and it asks even more details about you than they see already from theirs logs.

Sad story - but not typical experience

This was one of several comments - along with the "alternative facts" in some of the reviews and website claims - which had me nervous about VyprVPN. I asked questions of support - which was/is quick & responsive - and then I has questions about the auto-billing etc. They now have a $5/mo special ($60/first year) which - if you keep, renews at their last discount rate ($80/year). Asked me about my bank? Nope. Used the credit card/Paypal secure form, not concerned (as I know some are) about bitcoin/crypto options, and hit go. Instant code by email and link to download all the platform apps. 5 minute set-up, easier than setting up an iPhone. With a Mac just pick the apps you want to encrypt. Like browsing. Or email. And yes, it does work P2P. So many personal tales of woe (maybe using fake or parents' cards?). It is solid and oriented around customer appreciation, clear to see. That's my 2 cents on them. Happy I just went with them.

One of the worst customer service experiences I've ever had

After two weeks of signing up, more features are added and prices are lowered. As an existing customer, I am not informed about this by email (or anything else) and do not automatically get access to the new features, only AFTER I prompt them why I do not have the advertised number of maximum simultaneous connections, I am told that I am still on an old payment plan and that it is my own fault for not staying up to date with their changes in their offer.

Don't use them

I subscribed to VyprVPN from France, one day before flying to China; I paid for the one year subscription, which had a good discount rate. Worked fine in France. In China, no way to get through the Great Firewall (no problem with the free Tor, which I am using now). I cancelled immediately the service, about three days after subscribing. One month later, inspite of several emails, no answer and no refund.

Stay clear

I never write comments but someone needs to make people aware.
I have tried over 15 VPNs and this one is one of if not the worst of them all.
I signed up for their service. After my order was complete I went back on their website to sign in. As I signed in I noticed a promotion for 25% off which was not applied to me. After talking to their employee through the chat he said I do not qualify for the promo because I am not a new customer. I literally signed up within in the hour I told him. He repeated that I am not a new customer after I explained to him my situation.
So the option I was given was to cancel my subscription and resign up, then I would be entitled to the 25% off, which was quite weird.
After doing this I had, had enough with this company because of this whole aggravation, so I decided to exercise my 3 day money back guarantee. They then told me I was not allowed to get the 3 day money back because I wasn’t a new customer (because they made me cancel and resign up) all of this within 36 hours!
This company is a joke

Great, works as advertised

I use a amazon TV, both the big block and the USB, this works on both, anywhere in the world.
The fact that I can install it on the android system used by Amazon is a real bonus, I had tried other VPN software and it just didn't work at all.
I don't care about general privacy (however I always VPN into the USA for access to my bank account), I don't care if people see me looking at porn sites, I DO CARE that I can stream films, music and TV series from my Amazon account when out of the USA though. I would recommend this if you have an Amazon Prime account and you want to stream your content, Also, as far as I can see it is the only VPN in the Amazon app store for VPN access.

Good for US, no Aussie streaming

For the most part I think that VyprVPN is a good service, it is reliable with a wide variety of useable servers in many different countries, however, these don’t include Australia. So while I have no problem accessing US streaming sites, there isn’t a way to do the same for Australian ones.

Android VPN that works

As an Android tablet user I find it hard to find a reliable VPN that works on my device. VyprVPN has an easy to use app so I’ve had no problems accessing any of the sites I want to. The only downside I have found so far has been the speed of the connection, it can be a bit slow when I use a mobile network but in generally fine when I connect using Wi-Fi.

Fast Reliable Connections

Compared with other VPN services that I have used, VyprVPN connects really fast and hasn’t dropped once in my experience. Free online storage is a great bonus you won’t get elsewhere. It also works on my MacBook with no issues at all, though the downside is that I can’t run on my different devices at the same time without paying for a higher package, but I can use one when I’m out, and another when I’m at home. This means I’m safe using public hotspots as well as privacy in my own home. I even got a discount for 12 months subscription.

Easy to use for a beginner!

For a new user to a service like this, it’s really simple to get working. I’ve had no problems so far, and would recommend this service to anyone that is thinking about using a VPN for the first time. The only issue I found was the very first connection also needed the Windows VPN client to be set-up, which I didn’t know about. Once I knew about this, the rest was really simple. I’ve been watching US Netflix all week now!

Terrible speed connection and performance

That is pretty good on the first day purchase for the connection and performance. Unfortunately, the speed and server connection terrible slow after few days purchase, and request for refund for this issue after 6 days from the purchase date, but their are refuse to refund and just tell me I can cancel the service via control panel.
Therefore will suggest the person who need to purchase vpn service, please think carefully and make compare, thanks.

VyprVPN Premium

VyprVPN

Vypr VPN offers two great packages. Their basic package includes unlimited data usage on three simultaneous connections plus PPTP, L2TP/IPSec, and OpenVPN. They also include a NAT Firewall and their VyprDNS, which is an encrypted, zero knowledge DNS.

Per month, their price is $9.95, but if you sign up for a year it goes down to $5.

Their premium plan, which costs a bit more, covers the basic plan, except it allows up to five simultaneous connections. With the premium package, you can also access their VyprVPN Cloud.

Their premium plan is 12.95 per month, but if you sign up for a year, it goes down to $6.67 per month.

VyprVPN also includes a 30-day money back guarantee with your package, so you don't have anything to lose by signing up and trying it out.

Reliability & Support4.7 / 5.0

VyprVPN is a very reliable service, it never dropped connections when we tested it, and always worked very well with high speeds. They offer excellent support in the form of a live chat service, so you are guaranteed to speak to a real person who can try to resolve your problems. The staff are all friendly and work very hard and quickly to solve all issues, staying on and talking you through what they are doing until the problem is resolved.

The Bottom Line

Jackie Goldstein

(Web and Security Expert)

With superior speeds and their Chameleon technology, Vypr is one of the best options

VyprVPN is a fast and reliable service, and we did not experience any issues when using it across a range of devices, such as a PC, MacBook and an Android tablet. It provides a large number of servers around the world from which to choose, so you are highly likely to find one that is suitable for your needs. It is a great VPN for those who are just starting out – it is easy-to-use and very reliable (though speed can drop when using a mobile connection as opposed to WiFi). To boot, their Chameleon technology takes them to an even higher level, especially for users who reside in countries with particularly restrictive governments. Overall it is a great service and fantastic value-for-money. It even offers a Money Back Guarantee, so I suggest you try it out for yourself – even if it’s not exactly what you want, you won’t lose out!

Overall Rating 4.7

Overall Rating 4.7

Jackie Goldstein

(Web and Security Expert)

Our testing of VyprVPN has shown it to be straightforward and enjoyable. Everything worked flawlessly and the software is very easy to get the hang of, even for new users of VPNs.

VyprVPN has one noticeable advantage over its rivals. They have a technology called Chameleon, which is designed to reduce the recognizability of data to those who may want to intercept what you are doing, making this software ideal for users in countries with authoritarian governments who monitor their citizen's behavior online. Chameleon works by scrambling OpenVPN metadata to ensure it’s not recognizable via deep packet inspection (DPI) — the most common method of inspection. VyprVPN users are then able to bypass enhanced government interference, whilst retaining OpenVPN security (by not modifying the OpenVPN 256-bit protocol), as well as having the ability to get through normal VPN blocking and bandwidth throttling.

One thing that VyprVPN lacks is the ability to torrent. Users reported that Vypr shut down their accounts when they torrented or file-shared. You cannot torrent with VyprVPN. (If you're looking for a VPN to torrent with, check out our list here.)

VyprVPN offers a good choice of server locations, with more than 700 servers based all over the world. They place a higher emphasis on security than many of their rivals, making them one of the best services we have seen. On top of this, the price is a bargain, making them a great value for your money. We would recommend VyprVPN to anyone looking for a service that protects their geolocation and security.

Best VPNs for Torrents Rating 4.0

VyprVPN has unlimited downloading and bandwidth, but it does not allow torrenting. Many users brought it to our attention that VyprVPN will suspend your account if they find you using P2P or file-sharing. While there are no restrictions and no limits on switching between servers, you cannot torrent with VyprVPN.

However, VyprVPN does have a lot of other features.

As a premier member you can store up to 50GB of data in their cloud service DumpTruck, with a basic member still receiving 10GB of storage and a pro member 25GB — so your downloaded files can be accessed from any device you link to your cloud-based account.

Best VPNs for Windows Rating 4.8

Best VPNs for Windows Rating 4.8

Jackie Goldstein

(Web and Security Expert)

This service is one of the simplest we have seen for installing and connecting on a PC(or a Mac for that matter). They have an impressive feature, which will configure your computer to only allow internet traffic to originate through the VPN connection, removing the chance of accidentally connecting directly to a server. If you're looking at getting a VPN for security reasons, then this is a fantastic feature.

There is no difficulty in connecting and choosing either a specific, or the fastest, server thanks to the intuitive interface. However, it isn't immediately obvious during setup that you need to manually set your PC's VPN protocols to those specified — just make sure you read the installation guides.

Best VPNs for Android Rating 4.8

Jackie Goldstein

(Web and Security Expert)

Although no VPN configurations are completely straightforward, the Android App goes a long way to improving the experience for mobile users.

Once downloaded from Google Play, there is only a minimal amount of setup to go through. As well as login details, you basically have one button that will then automatically connect for you. As with the computer version, you are able to choose servers and view speeds. There is also a 'fastest server' filter you can use, which — unless you are looking to appear from a specific location — is likely what most people will likely choose.

Once connected, the app will monitor the connection, giving you a real-time summary of speeds and connection reliability.

All in all, The Android app is about as easy and useable as an app of this type comes.

The Mac console is one of the most attractive of any VPN services. Similar to use on other platforms, it is straightforward to connect to a specific (or the fastest available) server. Although VyperVPN sets the configuration options itself, these are amendable, if you're confident in doing so.

The graphical interface shows a speed graph, which will change from red to blue when connecting through the VPN, and you'll see a corresponding change in IP address to your 'new location'. Changing between locations is done with a single click.

The iOS console is one of the most attractive of any VPN services and it has the same straightforward connectivity of the other available platforms. Although VyperVPN sets the configuration options itself, these are amendable and there are guides to doing this available. You can also choose to focus more on speed or security.

The opportunity to connect to the VPN servers automatically whenever you’re using public Wi-Fi is great for those who often use their iPad on the move, and are looking for online safety.The graphical interface shows a speed graph, which will change from red to blue when connecting through the VPN, and you'll see a corresponding change in IP address to your 'new location'.

VyprVPN has 8 server locations in the USA and each city has a cluster of servers meaning that there is a lot of choice to enable you to select the fastest option in the area (the server with the fewest connections).

The servers are located in Austin, Chicago, Los Angeles, Miami, New York City, San Francisco, Seattle and Washington DC. The benefits to having a selection of servers in the US include the ability to see location-specific Google search results and ads, and the ability for people connecting from outside the US to access North America-only sites such as Netflix USA. Having several servers in each location means you have alternative options whenever one isn’t available — something not all services provide.
